Heat, Hornets react to NBA ruling on uncalled LaMelo Ball foul, and how he'll be eligible to play
MIAMI (AP) — In Miami, the NBA's decision that LaMelo Ball grabbing Bam Adebayo was an ejection-worthy flagrant foul didn't register much of a reaction. In Charlotte, the fact that the ruling didn't include a suspension brought relief.
LaMelo Ball of the Charlotte Hornets says he's relieved that Miami Heat star Bam Adebayo wasn't more hurt after the run-in with Ball in the second quarter.
LaMelo Ball has been hit with a combined $60,000 fine following the Charlotte Hornets’ dramatic Play-In win over the Miami Heat, with the NBA outlining two separate violations. The penalties come after a tightly contested overtime game that already carried high stakes.
